J.K. Rowlings nye bog udkommer i dag...

...på originalt sprog

The Casual Vacancy

Det er J.K. Rolings første bog siden Harry Potter-serien. Denne gang for voksne. Godt jeg er voksen :0) Spændende og se om den lever op til Harry Potter standarden. Gyldendal har først fået bogen til oversættelse i dag også, så der går lige lidt tid før den udkommer på dansk.

Goodreads skriver:
When Barry Fairweather dies in his early forties, the town of Pagford is left in shock.

Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.

Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…Pagford is not what it first seems.

And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?

The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.
